Chapter 580: Lin Feng
Amongst those seven people, two of them had to be excluded.
This time, the manager of the event went towards these seven and asked, “What do you think, who should be excluded?”
When the seven people heard that question, they were speechless but they glanced at each other and two people were being stared at in the end.
Lin Feng and the cold-looking young man.
In their opinion, Lin Feng’s physical strength was brutal but the one he had fought against was also the weakest one. Yu Jian had only broken through to the fourth Xuan Qi layer. That was just a free win for Lin Feng. If he had fought against someone else, he surely wouldn’t have won that easily.
Besides, they were convinced that they could easily dodge Lin Feng’s punches and defeat him. His pure Qi was extremely weak, he hadn’t even broken through to the Xuan Qi layer… they had a millions ways to defeat him.
As far as the cold-looking young man, even though he had defeated a cultivator of the fifth Xuan Qi layer, his attack had been too sly. He had broken his own blade into several pieces and then attacked the one in black clothes by surprise. The others had defeated cultivators of the fifth Xuan Qi layer directly so they thought highly of themselves. Therefore, they thought that Lin Feng and the other young man were the ones that should be excluded.
The manager looked at those two young men and smiled, “Well, I will not waste your time then. Since you think those two people should be eliminated, fight against them and if you win, they will be eliminated. If you lose you will be eliminated, it’s as simple as that.”
Everybody was silent when they heard him. That rule was indeed extremely simple. One had to fight against Lin Feng and another one had to fight against the cold-looking young man, the losers would be eliminated… Based on that simple rule, the five extra candidates of the Great Competition of Xue Yu would be selected.
Of course, there was one problem. The three who were not going to fight didn’t need to do anything and they would immediately be selected. They didn’t need to fight against anyone and take the risk of being eliminated. Thus, nobody really wanted to fight even if they thought that Lin Feng and the young man were the weakest ones.
When the manager saw that they were all remaining silent, he smiled again and said, “Since you don’t want to fight, I will let them choose one of you to fight, the other rules don’t change.”
“How cruel.” Thought the crowd. Lin Feng and the cold-looking young man would probably choose the weakest of the five. If those chosen by Lin Feng and the other lost, they would lose face more than if they took the initiative to fight.
After all, everyone had seen them fight a moment before, they knew perfectly well who the weakest and the strongest ones were.
“I will fight first then. I choose him.” said one of those five people at that moment while pointing at the cold-looking young man. He didn’t choose Lin Feng, even though his Qi was extremely weak, he had no idea how strong Lin Feng really was. Maybe Lin Feng had been hiding something, it wasn’t clear, therefore choosing the cold-looking young man was the safest choice.
In fact, he was right to do so because in the end, he won. He knew the cold-looking young man’s trick so he had known what to expect. He did require a few minutes to win though. So he was going to participate to the Great Competition of Xue Yu!
“One person is left.” The crowd looked at Lin Feng, he was the protagonist of that minute. Someone had to fight against him and the list of the five extra fighters who would participate at the Great Competition of Xue Yu would be fixed. Those five people would also go to Mi Cheng.
Would Lin Feng be one of them?
A lot of people didn’t have a favorable opinion about Lin Feng, he had powerful physical strength but there were too many ways of defeating him.
“I will fight against him.” As expected, one of the four others pointed at Lin Feng and challenged him. He was convinced that he would defeat Lin Feng and participate to the Great Competition of Xue Yu.
He was thinking differently from the first one, that person thought that Lin Feng was the easiest to defeat.
Lin Feng looked at that person point at him. It was a young man in cyan clothes. Lin Feng had seen that person fight a moment before, his strength was his speed.
“He is too fast, that’s a pity for that sick-looking guy.” Thought the crowd when they saw how quick that person was. To them, Lin Feng had no hope. Even though he was strong, the other one was too quick. Lin Feng would never be able to get close to him. Lin Feng was certainly going to lose.
“Alright, you fight.” said the others impatiently. They were impatient to see who would grab the open spot to participate at the Great Competition of Xue Yu. The young man in cyan clothes would likely win though.
That young man was looking at Lin Feng with a smile revealing his confidence. He said, “You saw me fight, there is no hope for you. You have a mysterious physical strength but you will never defeat me. I don’t want to hurt you so you should just withdraw, alright? I will participate to the Great Competition of Xue Yu, there is no doubt about that. Even if you did, there would be no hope for you!”
When Lin Feng heard him, he had the feeling that guy was a joke. Lin Feng didn’t care though, he was still smiling in the same way, nobody could recognize him at that moment. He looked sick and was always smiling like a little sunshine. He didn’t look handsome and outstanding like before, otherwise he would have coldly stared at that person. With his new face he had to smile.
“You’re the weakest one amongst them, yet, you’re saying that I would have no hope at the competition? Do you think you would?” said Lin Feng with a smile yet not a smile on his face which left the other one speechless. He immediately glared coldly at Lin Feng and said, “I was giving you a chance to survive before but now you missed it. Do you think that you can win anything relying on your physical strength? Let me ask you something, are you sure that you can even reach me?”
After saying that, the person turned into an illusion and appeared on Lin Feng’s left, then right, then behind. He was moving at the speed of light. He appeared in front of Lin Feng and then appeared at his initial position again. His speed was incredible.
“How fast…” Thought the crowd gasping with amazement. He had been really right to choose Lin Feng.
He then coldly looked at Lin Feng and said, “Did you see that? You didn’t even have the opportunity to react. If I attacked you, how could you block me? If you can’t reach me, how can you fight?”
Lin Feng’s eyes twinkled in an extremely strange way.
Then he moved, taking a step forwards. The one in cyan clothes was coldly looking at him. Lin Feng really wanted to die.
But at that moment, he was frozen. Lin Feng was still standing there, but between them, surprisingly, several Lin Feng’s appeared!!
Shadows! Those were surplus shadows!
“Slap!” A loud slapping sound spread in the air. The one in cyan clothes had just been slapped in a violent way and was immediately thrown down groaning with pain. His mouth was covered in blood.
His face felt like it was burning.
“You think that you’re fast?” asked Lin Feng while looking down at him. Lin Feng’s words sounded like what a father scolding his son might say, it sounded strange.
The one in cyan clothes raised his head and blankly stared at Lin Feng, he was fast?
“Can I reach you or not?” asked Lin Feng. The one in cyan clothes was still bleeding, he coughed some blood. His face felt even more painful while coughing.
He had said that he was extremely fast and that Lin Feng couldn’t reach him. That Lin Feng would have no time to react.
But at that moment, Lin Feng had been faster than him and had even slapped him. He didn’t have the time to reply, he was even knocked down. Everybody thought it looked like a funny spectacle. Everybody was laughing and giggling mockingly, he had chosen Lin Feng as an opponent?
